Coach Lee

Chapter 797 Chinese Li Appears in New York!
On October 10, the NBA regular season opener kicked off.

Heat vs Celtics
From the very beginning, it was a strong dialogue full of sparks.

James + Bosh + Wade vs Pierce + Garnett + Ray Allen!
The result was that the experienced Celtics had the last laugh.

109-102
The Heat lost to the veteran Celtics in the opening game.

James once again lost to Pierce, his lifelong enemy.

In this game, James only scored 21 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, and made 17 of 5 shots.

而皮尔斯却是得到了25分7篮板5助攻，投篮15中8，很是高效。

In the matchup between the two, James often used the low post taught by the old Jordan guy.However, Pierce's defense was very difficult for James to deal with.

After fighting in the East for so many years, James still can't get past Pierce's defense.

In the final minutes of this game, the Heat trailed by 4 points and had a chance to catch up.

However, James missed an open three-pointer. After hesitating, he chose to make a breakthrough, and the result was passed to Chalmers. Chalmers missed a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

The Celtics grabbed a long rebound, took advantage of the opportunity to counterattack, and the counterattack was summarized. Ray Allen soared a key three-pointer from the outside.

After that, James played a high-post singles with the ball head-on, found a pick-and-roll, and met Rondo.James went ahead without hesitation.One changed direction and drove Rondo in directly.It's just that James didn't score the last goal when he turned around on the wing.

In the last round, James had a chance to single Pierce in the low post.As a result, after two backs, James gave the ball to Wade.Because James saw Rondo approaching and wanted to double-team, and because he saw Wade's opening.This is a reasonable pass, and Wade also hit the ball.However, some people will not let James go.

After this game, everyone also criticized James' handling of the key ball even more.

Passing the ball is wrong!You are the little emperor James, how can you pass the ball to others?You just have to carry it yourself, no matter what it is, you have to carry it yourself!

It's wrong to shoot. It's so lonely to shoot by yourself with such a bad touch!Let's vote for Wade for the key ball.Wade is the key player.

After losing this game, the Heat's record has not improved.

In the first 17 games, the Heat only achieved a record of 9 wins and 8 losses.

Originally, everyone supported the Heat to defeat the Nuggets.However, the big devil retreated, and the media's targeting of the Nuggets disappeared all of a sudden.

But the hatred in everyone's hearts can't be eliminated.

How to do?
So, everyone passed on that hatred.

It didn't take long for the Heat to be pushed to a high point and become "the target of public criticism."

During the peak period, the three superstars hugged each other, which is the point that everyone criticized the most.

Now, the Miami Cosmos No. [-] team is off to a bad start, and fans from various media are also talking about it.Amidst the turmoil, there seemed to be discordant voices within the Heat.The media gossip blew up:
"Head coach Spoelstra has had a bad start, and the coaching position is in danger, and he is sitting on pins and needles."

"President Pat Riley has the heart to replace him."

"Chalmers cries after the loss to the Wizards."

All of these put the Heat, who were in a good situation, under tremendous pressure.

At this time, a piece of news saved the "besieged" Heat team.

"Chinese Lee Appears in New York!"

It was just such a piece of news that immediately exploded into thousands of fans.

"Is China Li going to return? Didn't he promise to take care of his family? Why did he come back?"

"Is this just about to come back after retiring?"

"No way? This is too much to bear. To be honest, I don't want Li to come back."

"Li, come back quickly, the alliance without you is really ugly."

"Lee, come on! The New York Knicks welcome you!"

"Only we in New York are worthy of Lee's identity!"

"The Nets are your wisest choice! Our Prokhorov thief is rich!"

……

As soon as Li Nan appeared, the firepower against the Heat was reduced a lot.

Everyone is thinking now, what is Li Nan doing in New York? Is it really a comeback?
Just when everyone was thinking wildly, the official NBA Twitter posted a photo: [Uncle Chunky Drew and Li Nan hook shoulders together]

When everyone saw clearly, they found that the chunky Uncle Drew turned out to be David Stern!
Also after this tweet, the NBA officially announced a new personnel appointment:
Li Nan officially took office as the vice president of the NBA!

? ? ? ? ? ?
This is the reaction of everyone when they saw the news.

"A good superstar is wrong, and he should be a subordinate to Stern? This is really incomprehensible."

"I always feel that there is something shady behind this."

"Maybe that's what Lee is after. He doesn't care about making money, he cares about basketball."

"That's fine, as long as Lee is still in the NBA, I'll be content to see him from time to time!"

"Maybe one day Li will come back just because he sees the players on the field are too good, and then he can't help it? Looking forward to..."

……

In an office on the 15th floor of the Olympic Tower on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.

"President, are you going to fire me?"

At this time, the duck egg was very wronged.

He thought that he had worked hard for so many years, and he didn't feel sorry for the old man at all. Why is the old man so ruthless and hired another vice president? Isn't it obvious that he has a problem with duck eggs?
Seeing the aggrieved duck egg, Stern shook his head in disappointment, "Do you know why I asked him?"

Duck shook his head.

Even if I know it, I can't say it!

The swivel chair turned to the floor-to-ceiling windows, and Stern didn't want to see Duck's face anymore.

"Do you know who gave me advice on the labor dispute in 98?"

Duck Dan was slightly taken aback, and asked cautiously; "No, it can't be Li, right?"

Stern quickly talked about the past, "You were as timid as a mouse at the time, but Lee, who was a player, supported me with a tough attitude and gave me a lot of good advice. Like our NBA officials over the years. Facebook, the official TV station NBATV, and the NBA website are all suggestions from Li. The great reason why our league can become better is because of Li. Outsiders only know that Li is a good player, but they don’t know that Li still does it. So many things. Tell me, if you were me, would you accept Li as an assistant?"

"I, I, I definitely won't!" Yadan hesitated, but still chose to deny, "Li is an athlete after all, so he is definitely not suitable to be an assistant. He has no experience, so he must not be able to do it well! Moreover, He is such a big name, why would he be unhappy at that time, and even incite the fans to make trouble."

Hearing this, Stern smiled disdainfully,
"Hen~ You, you are really short-sighted. What if Li incites the fans to help me? Wouldn't I make a lot of money?"

Hearing that the president praised Li Nan so well, Yadan finally had a sense of crisis, and slumped on the ground, hugging Stern's leg, "President, then, what should I do? President, for so many years, no credit, Is there hard work too? You can't fire me!"

Seeing the ugly appearance of the duck egg, Stern was really disappointed, "If you don't let go, I will really fire you."

"Ah? Oh oh oh." Ya Dan hurriedly stood up straight, a gentleman with a white face, as if the person just now was not him.

Where did Stern not know that Duck had an opinion on Li Nan's position? "Duck, don't worry, I actually have other arrangements for you."

There was some expectation in Yadan's eyes, "What arrangement?"

Stern said without hesitation, "Vice President!"

Hearing this, Yadan was also taken aback, "Wow! I'm also a vice president?"

I'm promoted, I'm finally going to be promoted, I'm really going to be promoted!
"But what does the vice president do?"

Before Li Nan became the vice president, Yadan was a little jealous, but he was too embarrassed to ask.Now I can't bear it anymore.

Stern said casually, "You were the one to read in the second round of the draft. You take care of the NBDL league. You also take care of the WNBA."

Then, duck egg's excitement just now disappeared.

Because what he was doing was still the work of the original assistant, but he was given a higher position.

"Then why is Li?"

"Li? He's just a fake job. Duck, you don't really think that Li is here to grab your position, do you? Don't think too much, I will only leave this position to you."

"President, is this true?" Yadan's tears were shining, and his heart was very moved.

At this time, Stern stood up and patted Duck on the shoulder.

If it's not your silly son, can it be someone else?

Stern said earnestly: "Work hard. I will retire after a few more years of work. From now on, you will have the final say in the NBA. You can do whatever you want at that time."

Duck is so excited, when it's time for him to be the master, he must make drastic improvements to the league.

"Wow, that's great! At that time, I will introduce gambling first, which will definitely double the income of the NBA."

Unexpectedly, Stern's expression was extremely ugly, "Huh? What did you say?"

Yadan's eyes were wide open, and his mouth trembled a little, "Huh? I, did I say it?"

Snapped!
Stern slapped the duck egg on the back of his neck.

"Ouch!"

Stern was really angry, "If you dare to bring in gambling, see if I don't interrupt your dog legs!"

"President, I'm just thinking about it, really just thinking about it. I'm sure I won't do that." Yadan hurriedly begged for mercy, why did he say it?

"You bastard, if you really do that, the NBA must be making money, but in that case, our game will become more full of money. Sooner or later, you will ruin the NBA. !"

Feeling angry, Stern still did not forget to teach this silly son.

In fact, Duck-Joke's academic qualifications are not low at all, but why are his ideas always so stupid?Is it fake?Stern was also very helpless towards duck eggs.

"Yes, yes, president, I understand, I will definitely not do that in the future." Yadan said that, and only he knew what he was thinking.

Stern conducted a test on the spot, "Then tell me, how will you reform after you become the president?"

After a short pause, Duck blurted out, "I, I will make reforms in terms of referee whistleblowing, and I want to ensure that more stars continue to play healthily. If the super giants are damaged at every turn like before, the loss of the league will be too great. big."

Seeing that Stern was listening carefully, Yadan also asked, "President, do you think this is good?"

"Okay, okay, that's really great."

Seeing Stern nodding and saying yes, Duck also grinned happily.

However, Stern came over with another slap, directly on the back of Duck's neck,
Snapped!
"Ouch!" Duck screamed.In fact, it doesn't hurt that much, but you must shout out!

"Okay, you duck-joke, I haven't retired yet, and you're actually thinking about pushing me down. Are you expecting me to step down tomorrow? Huh?..."

Stern taught Duck Dan a hard lesson...
